Supreme Court Marshal Gail Curley said that justices were part of the investigation into who leaked a draft opinion to Politico last year. "During the course of the investigation, I spoke with each of the Justices, several on multiple occasions. The Justices actively cooperated in this iterative process, asking questions and answering mine. I followed up on all credible leads, none of which implicated the Justices or their spouses. On this basis, I did not believe that it was necessary to ask the Justices to sign sworn affidavits," Curley said in a statement on Friday. Curley's statement comes one day

Wouldn't want to risk perjuring themselves, now, would they? Confidence in this high court already wasn't very high.

Gail, The flaw in your plan is that liberals will lie when it suits their purpose. You cannot shame them. Sincerely,

I’m quite tired of the blathering about this. With the exception of Justice Thomas (and probably Alito), I think any one of the others would ‘throw mama from the bus’ if it suited them. In this digital tech age, and with cameras tracking your every move, it insults my intelligence that they say they don’t know who the leaker is. They knew within an hour. Nothing will be done (a la Hillary), so let it go. The horse has been dead. Quit beating it and let it rest.

I'd bet none of the high and mighty were even interviewed. If anything, they were sent a questionnaire to be completed by a staff member. In Washington an "investigation" is an euphemism for cover-up.

I think the orders for the leak came from higher up. The Deep Sate needed a rallying point for their base. To bring this up before the election was planned. It looks like control runs deep.

We don't know if Curley's telling the WHOLE truth on this. Think behind the lines. Curley says she didn't ask the Justices or their spouses to sign sworn affidavits because she found nothing that implicated them. WHEN were the Justices told that affidavits wouldn't be required--- before, during, or after their interviews? If innocent, wouldn't the Justices have DEMANDED to sign a sworn affidavit which could then be used as further evidence of their veracity? WHY did Curley throw the Justices a lifeline in the form of no requirement for a sworn affidavit? She had to think that at least one Justice was in trouble or she would have let the process go forward with signed affidavits reflecting judicial standards for accuracy and honesty.

Working for a defense industry I know I can be polygraphed if something is amiss. While not legal in a court of law, everyone could take a lie detector test and they would know who did this. But since all are lawyers they probably refused. I have no choice as a defense contractor, why is the important areas of government exempt from this possibility?

Authorities have breached a white van in Torrance that they believe is connected to the gunman who opened fire at a ballroom dance studio in Monterey Park on Saturday night, killing 10 people and injuring 10 others. Just before 1 p.m. Sunday, a SWAT team swarmed the vehicle and smashed its windows in the parking lot of Tokyo Central, a Japanese grocery store near the southwest corner of Hawthorne and Sepulveda boulevards. At least two bullet holes had been visible in the driver’s-side window in the moments prior to their approach, and the driver appeared to be slumped over the steering wheel.

"On Saturday January 21, 2023 at 10:22 PM the suspect male/adult/Asian pictured above was involved in a shooting. Investigators have identified him as a Homicide suspect and he should be considered armed and dangerous," the Los Angeles County Sheriff tweeted Sunday. Photos show the unidentified man wearing a hat, glasses and a winter coat. He stands at about 5'10" and weighs 150 pounds, according to authorities. He was described earlier Sunday as an Asian male between the ages of 30 and 50.

As RedState reported, Joe Biden’s latest scandal took another major turn on Saturday after a DOJ-led search of his Delaware home revealed even more illegally possessed classified documents. But while things have undoubtedly escalated, it’s now being reported that Robert Hur, the special counsel appointed to investigate the president, hasn’t even taken over the investigation yet. Instead, the search was overseen by U.S. Attorney John Lausch. I’m honestly at a loss as to how this could be. According to Merrick Garland, the decision to appoint Hur was not made rashly, and the plan was already in motion by the time the official announcement was made on January 12th,

This comes after the Department of Justice located six documents with classified markings at Biden’s home in Wilmington, Delaware, on Friday. RedState reported: It was just announced that Justice Department personnel searched Biden’s Wilmington, Delaware home for 12 hours on Friday, with Biden’s personal attorneys and White House counsel present, and discovered six more classified documents that they have now taken possession of.

Don’t expect boasts of “We’re No. 1” from the White House or Wilmington, but that doesn’t diminish the singular, ah, achievement. Both Bidens have earned their brushes with infamy. Courtesy of Fox News, here’s a headline for the ages: “Biden, Hunter make presidential history as first father-son duo under separate investigations.” The president paid his dues with his serially reckless handling of classified information, with the added bonus that the gentle probe of him inadvertently draws a comparison to how roughly Donald Trump is being treated by the same Department of Justice. When it came to the supposedly secret documents Biden had scattered around like so much birdseed, the feds

That comes after the White House had asserted that the search had been completed. Biden’s lawyers immediately tried to get out in front of the revelation, releasing a statement claiming cooperation with the DOJ. But while the administration continues to talk about transparency, one bombshell detail from the search has left the president’s lies fully exposed. Namely, the fact that documents were found that were taken during Biden’s years in the Senate.

While leftists are busy calling for Americans to chuck their gas stoves off a cliff in the name of climate change, Dimon quipped, “We need oil and gas,” when Squawk Box co-host Joe Kernen asked him whether stakeholders will increase pressure on companies to pursue Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) policies.

It started with the discovery of classified documents at Joe Biden's former office at his think tank. This discovery was made on Nov. 2, 2022, a few days prior to the midterms. Yet the information was buried by the White House and other agencies which knew of the matter to protect the Democrats from any electoral harm. Recently, the Washington Post reported on how Biden’s lawyers, the White House, and the Department of Justice colluded to hide vital information from the public. Since the WaPo is a Democrat mouthpiece, there was abundant spin. The WaPo interviewed people directly involved in the discovery of the classified document and subsequent coverup.
